ConfigMaker tool for multiple configurations

Like many others I want to have EPG on my satellite receiver and WebGrab++ seemed like great tool.
Since I'm also lazy I don't want to do all the hard work of channel mapping, editing configurations, etc.. over and over again.
Modifying/maintaining one "grab" configuration is not that much of a deal, but problems rise when you have multiple configurations to run. Constantly copy/pasting site keys, updating inis & xmls, checking paths. Unacceptable.
What I also learned was that many others have same problems.

Welcome

WebGrab+Plus is a multi-site incremental xmltv epg grabber. It collects tv-program guide data from selected tvguide sites for your favourite channels.

Utility release
08/02/2013

This is a small utility that checks if all .net components, required by the Windows version of the program, are installed on your computer. If something is missing, it will automatically download and install the missing parts. It is also included in the MSI installer package, so normally you won't need this. However you can always run it again to verify or when the program reports missing .net components.

Update required for build 1.1.1/53.13
